"Take a good look at that object sitting there, at the back, ah, morning coat, trousers worn, moldy rose in button 'ole, you can't miss him...........I DESPISE that man, women and children!"

If you're inquiring as to whether it is the same actor who plays Dr.House in the American TTV series "House", as is playing Bertie in this clip, then, yes, this is the case.
His name is Hugh Laurie, if that tid-bit of information assists you at all in making further investigations with the Google or some such.
